Highland Games

The Highland Games at Amulet Vineyard Beechworth. Sunday 21 August 2011 10.30am-5pm

Highland Games StrongmenThe third annual "Highland Games at Amulet" is shaping up to be the best yet. Held on Sunday 21st August at the Vineyard, it's the perfect setting for this celebration of Scottish heritage. It's a family focused event that offers something for every member of the family with traditional Scottish games, pipe bands, traditional sword fighting displays, activities for the children and boutique wine and cider that his made on site

Professional strongmen compete for the Claymore Sword and title of "Southern Highlander". These feats of strength are rarely seen outside metropolitan areas and it is the only event of its kind in northern Victoria.

Another highlight of the day is certainly the massed pipe band parade. The sound of bagpipes echoing through the hills whilst the bands make their way down the sloping vineyard is spectacular.

The local police and CFA face off in the "Guns and Hoses" charity tug-of-war, with proceeds going to the Everton CFA. The Blue Ribbon Foundation will also be in attendance, joined by Constable T Bear.

A rain, hail or shine event that's fully catered (no BYO), we look forward to welcoming you to the games.
